| dc.description | In recent decades, chemical pesticides and fertilizers have been widely applied in agricultural production in China Although this has improved production in terms of quantity, it has also diminished soil health, jeopardized the natural environment, and affected the quality of both food production and people’s health In response, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs initiated a programme of Zero Growth of Pesticide and Chemical Fertilizers by 2020 Following a call from central government, the major rice production area of Chongming Island of Shanghai needed to establish new standards and practices for the production of quality green rice with zero chemical input Chongming Island is located in the northern part of Shanghai Municipality and serves as the estuary of Yangtze River to the Eastern China Sea It offers unique geographical and ecological advantages for agriculture development, possessing 25 percent of Shanghai’s rural areas and grain production, and accounting for 22 percent of total rice production in Shanghai. | |
